I’ve been looking for a way to install a minimal version of Slackware (current) in a VM and the smallest that I’ve safely come up with so far is this:

• Package group A
• Package group AP
• Package group D
• Package group F
• Package group K
• Package group L
• Package group N

I will try to get it smaller but I need this startup environment for another experiment so I’ll settle for this. Yes, it is still a wopping 12GB. Geez…
